Question: I am a school bus driver. I love my job and I love the kids, but some of the drivers we encounter on a daily basis are really getting to me. People act like they don’t see the bus, and they don’t slow down when they are coming, so we can’t let the kids off the bus until we know they are going to stop. The ones that bother me the most are the creepers. They stop initially, but then they keep creeping towards the bus, violating the 20 foot restriction required for them to stay back from the bus. This creeping causes big problems.
Question: Would you please re-address the law on stopping for pedestrians, and the correct actions and responsibilities of pedestrians in relation to the law? Most drivers seem to be unaware of the requirement to stop for pedestrians in crosswalks and it seems like a lot of pedestrians are getting hit in recent times.
